Author goes berserk! Film at 11!

I am no longer feverish, I'm glad to report. I work up this morning feeling almost normal, in fact. Sat down to work just as: gardeners showed up to mow the grassy verge of the schoolyard across the street, neighbors in back and to one side began painting the back of their house with a big compressor-driven airbrush, and a city street crew showed up with an enormous chipper and chainsaws to remove another dangerous tree.

It is a good thing I am not the kind of person who keeps guns in the house.

I wrote 2 paragraphs. Finally gave up and read stuff to save energy for trying to do some writing tonight. Now that they are long gone I'm really tired. Oh well, tomorrow is another day, as a famous fictional character once said. :-)
